Episode 8: preview, Preview, PREVIEW!

We cover: NFL Week 15, UFC Thompson vs Neal, Giannis signs extension and more!

Owen's NFL corner(0:47-10:37) recaps the Thursday night Chargers-Raiders game (0:55) and previews the Kansas City Chiefs vs the New Orleans Saints (5:35) the Seattle Seahawks vs Washington Football team (6:57) as well as the New York Giants vs Cleveland Browns (8:17) Fantasy sleeper (9:41)

Max's Combat Corner (10:38-44:15) is dedicated to previewing tomorrow night's UFC Fight Night Stephen Wonderboy Thompson versus Geoff Neal. Several mistakes within audio check bottom of notes for corrections. Thompson vs Neal (11:25), Jose Aldo vs Marlon Vera (17:33), Khaos Williams vs Michel Pereira (25:06), Marlon Moraes vs Rob Font (27:30), Gillian Robertson vs Talia Santos (30:01), Greg Hardy vs Marcin Tybura (34:32), Anthony Pettis vs Alex Moreno (39:41)

In our NBA talk (44:16) we praise the Giannis extension for the hometown loyalty and the direction it takes Superstars, while mourning as Raptors fans. Is there a Hometown loyalty bonus in GOAT talk for such moves (51:13)? Clippers being investigated for luring Kawhai (55:52)? Some preseason notes: Chonky Harden (58:56), Curry being Curry (01:01:43) and Charlotte Hornets dark horse (01:03:51)?

Mistakes and Acknowledgements: Abdul Razak Alhassan was 4-2 not 6-1 in his UFC career when Khaos Williams stopped him, and it was Cory Sandhaggen not Cody Stamman who beat Marlon Moraes... Gillian Robertson has the most finishes at Women's Flyweight not Strawweight, Cannon Fodder is the word Max was looking for 😅
